Attention to all humans that have interacted with me in the past week and a half! You have (possibly) been exposed to head lice. Best guess is that they were hiding in or on skin and oil detritus caked to a stuffed elephant my son was carrying around, so it's possible that I'm the only one that got affected.

Internet head lice?

Physically interacted with, sorry. I can send you pictures of parasites to print out and carry around if you're feeling left out.

How to kill lice without killing yourself or the earth...... lampbane May 30 2008, 14:06:45 UTC

You can safely and effectively kill lice with salt water or a sauna - learn how to kill lice without killing yourself or the earth......

Pediculicide POISONS do not remove nits and are dangerous. Among the reactions to poison shampoo or lice "treatments" are seizures, mental retardation, many different allergies and respiratory problems, strange tingling, burning, itching, attention deficit disorders, brain tumors, leukemia, cancer and death.

I have used a sauna and/or salt water to safely and effectiely kill lice (but the nits remain).

I have also used ½ oz. of Safe Solutions, Inc. Lice R Gone® Enzyme Shampoo and/or their Enzyme Cleaner with Peppermint per shampoo-type application to safely remove both lice and nits.

Good. I'm definitely ready to blame the elephant.

sacredpsycho May 29 2008, 20:19:11 UTC

Mike and I check out ok this time. I still can't stop scratching myself, itchy all over.

teflonspyder May 29 2008, 20:43:11 UTC

I know, right? I've actually got them though. At least I'm the only one.

alienne May 29 2008, 21:48:03 UTC

Right now, anyway. I hate to say it, folks, but it can take 2-4 weeks from exposure to show signs of infestation.

alienne May 29 2008, 22:02:23 UTC

However, i have gone through the article linked above, plus the original article in the Journal of Pediatrics that's cited in it, plus Wikipedia and a bunch of other places. And here's what they recommend as the easiest and least annoying way to treat them ( ... )
